Coors Field Construction & Renovation

What does the construction of a new ballpark in a historic downtown district look like?

Coors Field, located in Denver's historic Lower Downtown District (LoDo), was the first new stadium added in a six-year period in which all Denver's sports venues were upgraded, including the Mortenson-built Pepsi Center, part of Mortenson's national sports and entertainment construction experience. Mortenson completed this $175 million ballpark construction project in 1995.

As an open-air, natural grass “old-time ballpark,” Coors Field features the Rocky Mountain scenery and the area’s heritage. As general contractor, Mortenson delivered the ballpark's lower, upper, and club-level seating bowl along with 60 private suites, plus family-oriented amenities including an outdoor picnic area, a dedicated children's seating area, and an arcade/video game space.

Since completing Coors Field's original construction in 1995, Mortenson has returned as construction manager at risk for seven significant ballpark renovation projects, a 30-year construction partnership with the Colorado Rockies.
